I am not a runner. I am not a fitness guru. I like the gym because it has childcare not because I enjoy working out. I'm really just an average mom of three still carrying a little extra baby weight but I RAN A 5K!
The <a href="http://EmpowHER.com">EmpowHER</a> crew, who is sponsoring my BlogHer experience, has been so encouraging and cheered me on as I ran. It was a beautiful course along the San Diego harbor and very normal without a communal start. It was cool (under 70 degrees) and so I decided I would try my best to run the whole thing. And I did. I'm pretty hard on myself usually but this time I'm proud.
Congrats! Wish we would have connected at BlogHer!!
Thanks Marcela! Me too!
Yay for you!!! I’m proud of you! Loved that we got to hang out at BlogHer so much! Can’t wait to have more fun in Atlanta!
Awww…Karen! Thanks! I felt kind of silly at first being proud of a 5k since I hear people talk about 1/2 marathons and marathons…but everyone’s gotta start somewhere! I had a BALL hanging out with you. You are definitely the party starter!
